Sharon Martin Cutting Ties family estrangement

Cutting Ties with Your Parents

A Workbook to Help Adult Children Make Peace with Their Decision, Heal Emotional Wounds, and Move Forward with Their Lives

They say that family comes first; but it shouldn’t be at the expense of your mental health, happiness, or future. If you’ve decided to distance yourself from family, this book will help you confirm that you’ve made the right choice, and give you the tools you need to live your life with confidence.

From the author of The Better Boundaries Workbook comes this first-of-its-kind guided journal, where you can freely explore your needs, wishes, and expectations of others.

By following a series of simple writing prompts, you’ll bolster your communication skills and learn to establish and maintain better boundaries in all aspects of life. With this journal, you can write down your deepest thoughts and feelings—without being judged or criticized.

And as you work, step by step, through a series of reflections and writing exercises, you’ll be able to practice asserting yourself and building the boundaries that will not only protect you, but empower you to thrive.
